"Mr. Ling, how are you? I hope my message didn't disturb you."

Ling Zhenfei said, "No, I'm not resting yet. Is there something you want to discuss?"

Little Monster said, "Of course, I wanted to discuss the Xi Shan Food Street with you. After our website team's research, I want to report the first phase to you."

Ling Zhenfei said, "I know your website is very professional, so you can handle it as you see fit."

Little Monster said, "Although our website has hosted many food festivals, the Xi Shan Restaurant is quite special, so I still want to discuss it with you."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Alright then, tell me about your website's ideas."

Little Monster said, "Our website's work focus has fully shifted to this matter, starting with attracting investment.

Since you've already set the dish prices at a tenth, we should ensure you don't lose too much money, so attracting investment should aim to avoid losses and possibly make a small profit."

Ling Zhenfei was surprised and said, "I've set the dish prices so low, and I can still make money?"

Little Monster said, "With the influence of the Xi Shan Restaurant plus your fan effect, making money is expected. Our website will certainly earn a bit too. Meanwhile, we can increase the website's reputation; this is a win-win."

Ling Zhenfei said, "I knew you were very professional and you seem to be quite transparent about this; I'm very satisfied."

Little Monster said, "Now there's only one matter left: choosing a time. When do you think it's best to hold this food street event?"

Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment and said, "Right now, Qinghe Village isn't at its most beautiful — the lake still has thin ice, so that's a no-go.

The leaves on the trees are mostly yellow and not very attractive. I think maybe next month? How about mid next month? You can decide on the specific date."

Little Monster said, "Alright, we'll handle the rest of the promotion and related work, but your influence is quite large, so I hope you can mention this more on Weibo."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Don't worry about that, this matter is crucial for the future of Xi Shan Group, so I'm quite eager myself."

Little Monster said, "Alright then, I'll contact you if anything comes up."

After hanging up the phone, Ling Zhenfei was filled with amazement. This society is truly magical.

Originally, he wanted to give his fans some perks, setting the Xi Shan Restaurant's prices at a tenth was already quite low.

But who would've thought, with the Foodie Alliance's scheme, not only would it not lose money, but it could actually make some. This advertising is truly impressive.

While Ling Zhenfei was pondering this, his phone suddenly rang. He looked, and it was a video call.

The caller turned out to be Chu Bingqing. Ling Zhenfei hadn't seen her in a long time.

He hurriedly picked up the video call and saw Chu Bingqing's almost perfect face.

Even though Ling Zhenfei had seen plenty of beautiful women, with various temperaments, like the classical Lu Huanong, the Peach Blossom Fairy.

There are also pure ones, like He Lingxiu and Li Yuetong.

And quirky ones like Hoshino Junka.

Intellectual ones like Liu Bingying or Zhou Yun.

And confident, capable ones like Han Lian and Hoshino Meigetsu.

Those so captivating one can't look away, like Phoenix,

But among so many girls, it seemed their qualities could all be found in Chu Bingqing.

Maybe because Chu Bingqing is an actress, each time she sees Ling Zhenfei, she presents differently, sometimes pure, sometimes very intellectual.

Every encounter with Chu Bingqing gives Ling Zhenfei a very special feeling.

This time was no different. This time, Chu Bingqing was evidently in a hotel, seemingly just out of the shower, still dripping wet.

Seeing Ling Zhenfei open the video, Chu Bingqing was very happy and said to him, "Busy man, are you free now?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "Not too bad. Chu's Great Beauty, what are you doing?"

Chu Bingqing said, "I just finished work and am about to rest."

Ling Zhenfei said, "You're too dedicated. You haven't rested yet?"

Chu Bingqing laughed gracefully and said, "Not really, it's a reality show. I'm recording a reality show in Modu, it gets this late because there are too many people out during the day."

Ling Zhenfei said, "So that's it. What made you think of me?"

Chu Bingqing said, "Do you still remember what I told you last time?"

Ling Zhenfei was taken aback and said, "What thing? Remind me."

Chu Bingqing gave him a sidelong glance and said, "The film festival thing."

Ling Zhenfei suddenly realized and said, "Of course, I haven't forgotten. I'll head to Modu as soon as I finish up in Tangcheng."

Chu Bingqing said, "It's coming up soon, don't forget."

Ling Zhenfei asked, "When is it?"

Chu Bingqing said, "In two days, the festival is on the third night."

Ling Zhenfei calculated that curing Emily's grandfather would probably take about three days.

He said, "Don't worry, I will definitely come, I've already arranged everything."

Chu Bingqing said, "Good, I've saved you a spot."

Ling Zhenfei didn't know why Chu Bingqing was so focused on this film festival, but he believed there must be a reason.

Moreover, previously, Guoguo and even Li Yuetong had mentioned the film festival to him.

He believed this would definitely be a special event, so Ling Zhenfei was very curious to check it out.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Don't worry, I'll definitely be there."

Chu Bingqing seemed to finally exhale and said, "Knowing you're coming puts my mind at ease. You've had a lot going on recently, haven't you?"

Ling Zhenfei understood what Chu Bingqing was referring to and said, "Yeah, it seems like I've had a bit of bad luck recently."

Chu Bingqing said, "That's how it is in the entertainment industry. You never know when you'll be slandered, and even if it gets proven false later, there's no guarantee your reputation will recover."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Yeah, I'm okay, though. Even though there are a lot of people online criticizing me, there are still many people supporting me."

Chu Bingqing said, "Perhaps you're just lucky. I'm not so lucky — I tend to attract negative attention. Even doing a reality show this time got me criticized."

Ling Zhenfei said, "That's why you should avoid reading too many online comments; it can affect your mood."

At this point, Chu Bingqing changed the topic and said, "But not all online comments are bad. At least they let me know a lot about you."

Ling Zhenfei was startled; truly, good news doesn't travel far, but bad news spreads like wildfire.

Then Chu Bingqing said, "It's normal for someone like you to have a few admirers around. What I'm really interested in is Liu Bingying. But, looking at her pictures, she really is quite beautiful."
